Horsetooth Mountain Park - 58:07

Ran a PR up to the summit without trying to do so - 25:41 to the summit of North rock.

Workout went like this:
Main TH > South Ridge > Rock Trail > Summit > down Wathan > R on Spring Creek > R on Soderberg > South Ridge > Main TH

Felt great today -- been feeling great all week actually.  Ran a PR to the summit without even realizing I was clipping off a steady uphill tempo effort until I was within 1/4 mile or from the summit. Glanced down at my watch and was like, "I have a shot at sub 26 minutes!"

Hot -- like 95 degrees. But felt solid.

• Felt good to hit the sub 26 mark on the Rock summit (25:41) without even really trying to.  Perhaps I will intentionally give the climb a purposeful hard grunt sometime soon and see how much time I can clip off.

• I havent yet, but planning to register for the RRR50 this September in the upcoming weeks.

• I hope to get above timberline in the next 2 weeks or so for run up in the high country -- its been too long!

• Up next --- Fathers Day 5k!   Should be interesting to see if I can get the wheels moving, having only ran one speed workout in the last 5 months or so!
